What Is Performance-Based Admissions?

In a world where practical skills and expertise are in high demand, graduate education is a valuable step for professionals looking to elevate their careers. At Northeastern, our Performance-Based Admissions (PBA) focuses on evaluating students' current academic potential rather than relying solely on past credentials.

Our fresh approach to graduate education removes obstacles that can get in the way of conventional admissions processes. Instead, PBA places the focus on each applicant's practical experience and provides an inclusive, flexible pathway for professionals looking to advance their careers.
